The Babysits team

Babysits was founded in 2008 by Peter van Soldt. He was motivated by the idea of developing an easy-to-use platform that gives parents both freedom and peace of mind: Our mission of empowering communities around childcare globally was born.

Today, Babysits consists of a motivated team working towards safe, accessible, and affordable childcare. We highly value transparency and continuous improvement.
